if somebody asks you,
“who are you?”
here’s what you should say;
that you’re a god who swaps faces
more than the moon changes its phases.
that you’re a different person than who you were,
yet you’re the same person you always were.
that you’re a mess that contradicts itself,
that you’re a puzzle yet a piece of something else.
that you’re the rise and fall of empires,
that you’re a phoenix without its fires.
if you ask yourself,
“who am i?”
here’s what you do know:
you are you.
